A world torn by gross health inequalities is in serious trouble. The global health community can do much to reduce suffering and death among vulnerable groups. WHO is changing its way of working, alongside member states and financial and technical partners, to reach key national health goals and strengthen equity. The most urgent objectives include the health-related Millennium Development Goals, the 3 by 5 target in HIV/AIDS treatment (to provide 3 million people in developing regions with access to antiretroviral treatment by the end of 2005), and addressing the growing epidemics of non-communicable diseases. The key to achieving these objectives is strengthening of health systems guided by the values of Health For All.
一个因严重的健康不平等而四分五裂的世界正深陷困境。全球卫生界可以在很大程度上减少弱势群体的痛苦和死亡。世卫组织正在与成员国以及财政和技术伙伴一道改变其工作方式,以实现关键的国家卫生目标并加强公平性。最紧迫的目标包括与健康相关的千年发展目标、艾滋病毒/艾滋病治疗的“三五”目标(到2005年底为发展中地区300万人提供抗逆转录病毒治疗),以及应对日益增多的非传染性疾病流行问题。实现这些目标的关键在于以全民健康价值观为指导加强卫生系统。
